So my screen turned up
it works on 5v but has a wide pcb
Test fitted into the gameboy case:
So i still have to drill the button holes, now that my 10.8mm drill bit has arrived there is no excuse!!
I made a template for the drilling
I think I need to adjust the alignment slightly for the top buttons. That is what you get for using someone else's design!!
So anyway, I got another project, like you do
A transparent red case, I have used my screen surround in metallic silver.
So I drilled the holes using my template;
I drilled the pilot holes with a 1mm drill bit, then went to 3.2mm and finally I used a 10.8mm bit. I did the last by hand, not recommended as I cut my thumb on the drill shaft, that drill was sharp!
So halfway through cutting out the screen surround the dremel broke! It wouldn't be so bad, except I had borrowed it
so i'll probably have to buy 2 new dremels now!!
Anyway, i'm off to make more surrounds!
Cheers,
Dom.
